Send Us Your #FormFollowsFunction Photos!

All dog breeds were bred to perform a specific purpose. We want to see our readers’ dogs doing the work they were bred to do to be shared on The Canine Chronicle!

Thank you Jan Hare for sharing this Form Follows Function photo of your Weimaraner, “Dolphin” (GCH CH Image’s N About Time’s Making A Splash SH MX MXB MXJ NJP MXF MFB T2B SWA SBE SHDA CGC TKI NRD SDX VX2), doing what he was bred to do! According to the American Kennel Club, “The key figure of the Weimaraner’s early history was Germany’s Grand Duke Karl August, who held court in the town of Weimar. The duke, like so many European nobles of the age, was an avid sportsman. His dream was to develop the perfect hunting dog. The duke and his fellow noblemen at first used these unique-looking dogs as big-game hunters, in pursuit like bear, mountain lion, and wolves. As Europe’s population of these predators decreased, the Weimaraner found new work as an all-purpose hunter who points and retrieves gamebirds.” Dolphin is a Weimaraner Club Of America Futurity and Maturity winner, 2nd place Field futurity, and close to finishing his Master Hunter. Good boy Dolphin!
